-2 (70) in the third round. I actually missed 2 putts from under 4 feet so I really left more strokes on the course! At least it looks like I should meet my goal of being under par for a tournament (currently -8). Maybe I can have a great round in Round 4 and earn an exemption. I do like CC-Z, though, since it's nice to actually see my name on a leaderboard and I am starting to recognize some of the names on there too. But I do want to improve, so I guess a move up is inevitable? My brother is in CC-C, so I am kind of wanting to catch up to him someday, especially since we both started at the same time.

Well my caddy Pino let me down R4 I was -2 after 4 and went for my second glass, when I twisted the stopper out I got about a 1/4" slice in my left thumb. I didn't clear all the seal off the lip of the bottle. I tried a band-aid but lost feeling for swing (missed 5' putt for par). I tried without band-aid but started bleeding again. Tomorrow is out so I'll finish Saturday. BTW winds are up R4.

-1 (71) in my final round. I am -9 for the tournament and currently above the exemption line, but I have a feeling that is going to change. If only I wouldn't have missed those two EXTREMELY short putts in round 3 I might be in much better shape. Oh well, regardless of an exemption or not, it's an improvement and I met my initial goal. Next tournament I will definitely make the exemption line (if not a win) my goal for the week. Here's to trying...

Finished -7 for the tourney aided by my "Acme" comfort ware latex exam glove on my left hand. Soon as I took the first swing cut opened again, it's just in a bad spot on my thumb. Anyhooo I may take The Tilted Kilt off to let this heal. Really no issues with it today just my usual mediocre play lol.

There are 3 players with 3 rounds to go, If they don't play all 3 today you should be good to move up. Well Done!!

Oh, well, it was a good tournament. As long as I improve every tournament I am happy. Looking forward to next week!

Looks like it's going to take a low score this week given the initial scores on the leaderboard. I shot a -2 in my first practice round which is really good for me for a first round, so I guess you could say it's an easy course? Not one of my favorites, so far, though.

R1 (67) missed a 5' put on 18 for a bird (choke) but I'll take it. I may invite my other caddy Pino for R2 this afternoon, last time I did that I cut my thumb so We'll see LOL. If not, R2 Thursday.

70-69 (-5) after two rounds. I can't believe how many short putts I missed! Really bummed because I could have really posted a nice score. I am shooting for a -5 each of the next two rounds. Might be asking a lot, but I think it's possible on this course. -15 should put me in contention for an exemption. Maybe, maybe not. A lot of low scores this week. Something tells me the wind is going to kick up one of these rounds. Good luck to all!

Nice first round! Watch out for the Curse of the Pino! Have a safe second round Thanks, Matt!! There is a lot of tricky angles on these greens, the beads move fast. Of course when my first putt ave is 16' that doesn't help.

So much for that. +1 over my last two rounds for a -4 for the tourney. Ball striking was great, but I couldn't sink a putt to save my life!
